Job Summary

The Division of Finance and Administration is seeking a Budget and Finance Report Developer. This is a full-time (1.00 FTE), 12-month, professional faculty position.

Reporting to the Director for Budget Development and Analytics, the Budget and Finance Reporting Developer collaborates with budget and finance partners to develop and maintain a portfolio of reporting tools that support clear, timely, and actionable financial decision‑making.

This role works at the intersection of budget, finance, business processes, reporting, and Workday sustainment. The Reporting Developer understands how financial information is used by central finance teams, academic and administrative units, and university leaders, and translates those needs into reporting solutions that are accurate, usable, secure, and aligned with OSU's evolving budget and finance processes.

The position partners closely with Budget and Finance stakeholders, Budget and Resource Planning, Financial Strategic Services, the Controller's Office, the Workday sustainment team, and the broader university community to identify reporting gaps, clarify business requirements, improve reporting processes, and deliver tools that help users understand financial activity, budget position, resource commitments, and business process outcomes. The role requires a service-oriented, collaborative approach and the ability to move between technical report development, practical business process problem-solving, user engagement, and training that supports adoption and continuous feedback.

Key Responsibilities

Budget and Finance Report Development and Maintenance

• Design, build, maintain, and improve Workday reports and dashboards that support budget development, financial management, resource allocation, variance analysis, and operational finance needs.
• Use Workday Report Writer, Calculated Fields, dashboards, and related reporting tools to create reports that are accurate, secure, sustainable, and understandable to functional users.
• Deliver actionable insights through financial metrics, trend analysis, exception reporting, and other analytics that support Budget and Finance and campus decision-making.

Business Process and Custom Reporting Solutions

• Partner with budget and finance stakeholders to understand reporting needs, clarify business requirements, and translate those requirements into custom Workday reporting solutions.
• Apply knowledge of university budget and finance business processes to ensure reports reflect how work is performed and how decisions are made.
• Validate reports with functional users to confirm accuracy, usefulness, and alignment with budget and finance operational needs.

Stakeholder Partnership, Governance, and Compliance

• Work closely with the Workday sustainment team, Budget and Finance functional leaders, and campus partners to prioritize reporting improvements and identify enterprise-wide and budget‑or‑finance‑specific solutions.
• Support report governance by reviewing report purpose, ownership, security, documentation, usage, and lifecycle status.
• Assist in evaluating published reports and identifying opportunities to consolidate, retire, revise, or standardize them in coordination with governance bodies and functional stakeholders.

Support, Troubleshooting, and User Enablement

• Provide ongoing support and troubleshooting for budget and finance reports, including identifying root causes of reporting issues and coordinating resolution with functional and technical partners.
• Develop and deliver training, guidance, office hours, demonstrations, and other engagement opportunities that help the university community understand and effectively use available budget and finance reports.
• Create feedback loops with report users, finance partners, and campus stakeholders to understand pain points, identify unmet needs, and inform future reporting enhancements.
• Help users select appropriate reporting tools and apply reports effectively to budget management, financial review, and business process monitoring.
• Document report purpose, logic, limitations, data sources, and intended use to support transparency, maintainability, adoption, and user understanding.
